Incoming!

After debating which to flip for this etc, just decided to go for it outright! Absolutely stunning!

Looks great - I’m in the same boat debating on getting rid of a BLNR for 15500 but may just do a straight add. Big fan of the white face congrats!!

I literally took it out of the box and put it on and went to work! Just want to be 100% sure of the fit etc before I peel these suckers off!

By the way, for those debating between 15450 vs 15400 (or 15500), I had the 15400 before and now have this 15450. I can't even begin to tell you how much better this is for smaller wrists like mine. I was worried about dial size being too small but it is exactly same size as my daytona (which is ideal size for me).

What size is your wrist? I had a 15300 which worked well for me but I think I can pull off the 15500.

Is this a 450? At first I thought it was a 400 until I saw the Daytona 500 next to it!

Superb choice. Super congrats!

We have the same wrist size but when I tried it on at the boutique it look real small for some reason.

Try it again but not next to all the bigger dial watches in the store. Its like buying a TV. Once you bring it home it all makes sense

The taper of the bracelet makes it work so well.

This was always my issue with many larger sized Rolex watches (eg Sub) - the bracelet feels & looks too narrow for the watch head to my eyes.
